1.2 Machine Description and Intended Use

Machine

description

This machine is a mobile electric power source. The Wacker Neuson Mobile

Generator consists of a trailer-mounted cabinet containing an electric alternator, a

fuel tank, and a diesel engine. A control panel, receptacles, and connection lugs

are provided on the side of the cabinet. As the engine runs, the generator converts

mechanical energy into electric power. The operator connects loads to the electric

power receptacles and connection lugs.

Intended use

This machine is intended for the purpose of supplying electrical power to

connected loads. Refer to the product specifications for the output voltage and

frequency of this generator, and for the maximum output power limit of this

generator.

This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use described

above. Using the machine for any other purpose could permanently damage the

machine or seriously injure the operator or other persons in the area. Machine

damage caused by misuse is not covered under warranty.

The following are some examples of misuse:

■ Connecting a load that has voltage and frequency requirements that are

incompatible with the generator output

■ Overloading the generator with a load that draws excessive power during either

continuous running or start-up

■ Operating the generator in a manner that is inconsistent with all federal, state

and local codes and regulations

■ Using the machine as a ladder, support, or work surface

■ Using the machine to carry or transport passengers or equipment

■ Using the machine to tow other machines

■ Operating the machine outside of factory specifications

■ Operating the machine in a manner inconsistent with all warnings found on the

machine and in the Operator’s Manual

This machine has been designed and built in accordance with the latest global

safety standards. It has been carefully engineered to eliminate hazards as far as

practicable and to increase operator safety through protective guards and labeling.

However, some risks may remain even after protective measures have been taken.

They are called residual risks. On this machine, they may include exposure to:

■ Heat, noise, exhaust, and carbon monoxide from the engine

■ Fire hazards from improper refueling techniques

■ Fuel and its fumes

■ Electric shock and arc flash

■ Personal injury from improper lifting the trailer tongue

■ Typical hazards related to towing a trailer on roads and highways

To protect yourself and others, make sure you thoroughly read and understand the

safety information presented in this manual before operating the machine.
